In theory you are correct. But behind closed doors you will get denied.
I used to work for a major european motorcycle company. Motor claims would be tossed if the OEM oil filter was not used.
I will also state I have had a Fram oil filter fail and they left me high and dry on the claim.
I only use OEM myself. Its just not worth it.
